What you need:
1 (16-ounce) bottle Savannah Bee Company Honey BBQ Sauce (we used Sweet BBQ Sauce)
1 (12-ounce) bottle Heinz chili sauce
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons Savannah Bee Company Honey (we used Bourbon Honey)

Sliced green onions for garnish

What to do:

1. Wash Up!

2. Make the sauce: Combine the BBQ sauce, chili sauce, soy sauce, honey, paprika, and garlic powder in a large saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer.

3. Cook the sausages: Add the cocktail sausages to the sauce. Simmer, covered, for at least 30 minutes to allow the sauce to flavor the sausages.

Pro Tip: This recipe can also be made in a slow cooker and the sausages kept warm during serving time.
